2x2growingstarted grow question 4 years ago
I’m getting pretty close to harvest and I’m wondering if you have any tips for drying and curing cannabis?
I plan on using my tent for the drying period. Thanks guys.

I personally prefer only wet trimming big fan leaves, dry for 12-14 days, dry trim the rest and then curing in mason jars in various sizes leaving about 1/4 empty.
While curing I keep the jars in a dark cool place to prevent light degradation and I open the jars for 10 minutes every day while giving it a few gentle shakes, essentially "burping" it.
I personally find it unreasonable to use specific humidity bags in the curing jars because as long as it is kept indoors inside a drawer/cabinet/or whatever the right curing climate is achieved (18-22C, 50-65% humidity).
This has brought me top-shelf buds from make-shift micro grows to full grow tents and is from my own experience of course, this only a recommendation!
Hope it helps! Good luck and happy harvesting :)

Dont water the plant a few days before you plan to take her down so her water content is minimised. Cut the excess leaves and stems if you want a quicker dry. Do not point fans at the drying buds, indirect airflow only. Other people gave good advice as well!

Morning Mate,
Most important things in my opinion!
Keep Temps @ 20°C, a RH of around 50% and a mild airflow. After 7-10 days you'll get nocely dried buds.
I made my Box out of trash. Have a look at the last week of my lowryder diary. There r some good pics of the Box.
Hope this will help a bit, Servus✌️

Dark moving air about 70 degrees, 60 percent humidity. Hang upside down. Simple way to cure is glass canning jars. Burp few times a day first week. Once a day second week and about once every other third. Then like 1 or twice a week 4th on. Good luck and enjoy. Looks tasty.🌲🌲🌲👊

To harvest, or not to harvestCurious what others thoughts are - I realize this diary is seriously lacking. I only stumbled here on week 8 of this experiment.
Do you think this girl is nearing, right at or still some time left before harvest?

I have two drying options for my one plant. Wine fridge with perfect temp or closet with perfect humidity. Which is best?Should I dry my one plant in a wine fridge with a compressor that causes the humidity to fluctuate between 50-70% but can be set to a perfect 60f, or should I dry in a closet with perfect 60% humidity but temp at a steady 74f with no way to lower it? Perfect humidity or temp? ThxOther. Harvest - Drying

Drying.Hi all!
I currently have 2 plants growing. 1 of them has clearly bloomed faster and I will have to harvest it earlier.
Because I have only one grow box and I don't know where to dry it. Can I put them somewhere for two weeks to wait for the 2nd one?
Could u tell me what to do?

How long after the last flush, do you wait until you chop your plant?
Do you let it dry out so the pot is nice and light before you harvest? Or is a little moisture left in the soil ok? Did last flush 48 hrs ago and I'm itching to chop her down, but still slightly damp soil
